LCM Formula to Find Lowest Common Multiple of 972,342,702,486

LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.

972 x 342 x 702 x 486 = 113413760928

Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.

972 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 243, 324, 486, 972

342 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 19, 38, 57, 114, 171, 342

702 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 13, 18, 26, 27, 39, 54, 78, 117, 234, 351, 702

486 : 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 81, 162, 243, 486

18 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 972,342,702,486, is 18.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

972:2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

342:2x 3x 3x 19

702:2x 3x 3x 3x 13

486:2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2x 2x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3x 3 = 26244

Therefore, the value for common factors is 26244.

Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.

LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

LCM = 113413760928/(18x26244)

LCM = 113413760928/472392

LCM = 240084

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 972,342,702,486 is 240084.
